OK so me and AnnieBelle have decided to have or very on MAGIX CLUB...IDOL!!!
So please participate and if you don't have a great singing voice, well guess what, neither do I. So if you're wondering how this works is well first you use ur microphone to sing by searching the kareoke of the song off the internet (like youtube), then you put it on windows movie maker, then just upload and post it up. If you don't have a microphone you can be judge. We need at least 6 contestents and 2-4 judges.
can I be a prizemaker?
I've come by request =). I actually wouldn't mind singing...but *thankfully* I don't have a microphone and I'm still too shy to sing in public =P. So, looks like judge for me I suppose.
i would like to b a judge also
yes and yes
I'm a contestent
Prizemaker is supposed to make a graphic as a prize to the 2 winners at the end and judge has to give points and tell what you need to do next. Kinda like an American Idol
wow this is an interesting thread
i might've sang but its too complicated for me to post it, and i do have a mic (Zhanneel, its only from the dollar store, they're pretty easy to get)
so i guess i might be a judge if its ok
and I can be a prizemaker, right?
what kind of dollar store becuz its the same kinda of dollar store that is around me than i might b a contestant instead of a judge...buut if i dont get the mic then i want to b a judge still
rofl, if ur a good singer, get one and sing! come on, u might win a DittaDulla graphic!
btw guys, isnt it easier to record yourself with a camcorder and upload it onto youtube or something?
it was a dollar blitz, btw, terrior, in Canada
oh well im in delaware so i dont think we have those
well i think i might have to have a go at this ^_^ i guess i could proberbly use my digital camera and my singstar ^_^
yes dittadulla and humbu111 you can first click the start menu and accesories to find sound recorder. Next go on windows movie maker and import it there, lastly save it and post it up free without having to sign up on tinypic.com!
where would u post it?
so abdu who can all b judges adn what not???
Prizemaker(s): dittadulla
Contestents (so far we need more): Me and Fa
Judges: Zhaneel, Paul (terriordx person), humbu111 (tell me if I missed anyone k)
I will be a judge
Easy, I'd use tinypic than put up (aka post) the linkie here
Great marty's a judge too! I need no more judges and I'll take another prizemaker if possible and a million more contestents.
I'll be a contestant! {Seriously, did you think I wouldn't?}
Question, what if I can't find the Karaoke? I mean, 'cause at least one of the songs I wanna do does NOT have a karaoke.
sorry i dont know the answer to ur question, Annie, but if anyone wants to do the 4kids Winx theme song, ther's a karaoke of it on youtube
*waves hand wildly in the air* I'll be a contestant too!
Yeah another contestent!
Prizemaker(s): dittadulla
Contestents (so far we need more): Me, Annie, Jahnavi and Fa
Judges: Zhaneel, Paul (terriordx person), humbu111, mightymarty2
Here's a practice round: http://tinypic.com/player.php?v=2lu4c1w&s=4
Yes I know it sounds bad but the real round is gonna be for one longer, I won't mess up the lyrics and my throat will be better and it'll sound fantabulous.
I think you also need mightymarty as a judge. At least, I think he wanted that position.
yeah, you missed mightymarty2
oH THANX AND MY POST IS EDITED
how many contestants do we need to start
We need 5 but if we can't get another person by tomorrow we'll have to start. I can't wait to sing every time we touch!
i have kinda of an idea if ur up 2 it lol
for the first round how about everybody sing the winx theme song lol
heh that was the song i was going to do lol thats my fav song on my singstar
how many judges will we need?
the more, the better, i think
if were doing like american idol i think around 3-5 judges any more than that would be to much
I'm entering as a contestant, if I don't pass the first round, is it possible I be a judge? I have a question how long must the song be? and is it only limited to songs off the winx show or movie or everything?
We actually did this a while ago on Winx Dreams, you can still listen to older entries.
YEAH THAT'S A GREAT IDEA! But instead of for 1st round let's have it for the auditions which will be held from today till the 18th, k. Also if you lose the first round, which I hope is not gonna be me (but it cud be, hoo nos) can be like an announcer and can still vote. I think 4 judges are enuff.
any songs you think i should sing?
Well currently we're all supposed to be singing the winx theme song (which I just did). And if you're wondering what version, I don't mind if it's italian english or american, just do it.
do you mean we dont get to chose our own song? if thats the case i'm out sorry
oh ya we do
I'm singing everytime we touch I just thought we should take terriordx32's idea but if you don't like you don't have to, k
well the way you said it before you made it sound as if we had to sing the winx theam which i cant actualy do, but being we're alowd to do any song i'm going to sing the song i can do the best on singstar which happens to also be everytime we touch as long as you dont mind
I don't
My first round entry is a success. Click here to view http://tinypic.com/player.php?v=ncnlnr&s=4
ok i will do it(if i found out how)
Squee, I just realized I do have the karaoke to my song, in my choir binder~!
I'll post my entry up as soon as I can!
i'll post my entry up tomorrow unless i dont get a chance to do it then i proberbly wont be able to post it up by the deadline gee i never knew having a life could be so anoying ^_^
so is there gonna be voting by people who arent judges? cos thats how it is in Idol. The judges just give their opinions
can anyone help me with this cause im not sure how to get my voice on the computer
do you have a micraphone
that would be a no and my camera does not hook up to my computer
dose your camera have a memory card
yes
do you have a card reader?
I want to enter! When do the entries have to be in by again? And we can sing any song right?
yea, i was wondering that also...abdu or anniebelle when do the entries have to be due by
and how does the actual judging and elimination occur...will the judges eliminate or other magixclub member????
but so far(although im not in charge id thought id keep everybody updated):
prizemaker: dittadulla
judges: Zhaneel, terriordx, humbu111, mightymarty2
contestants: abdu, anniebelle, jahnavi, fa, bloom_daphne, abby, stellarocks
Can I please be the host? Don't all shows like this need an annoying obnoxious host. And I deliver the verdict and say stuff like "And now what do our judges have to say? Over to you Zhaneel(sinc eshe's the first judge)"
ok i drop out this is to hard for me to find a way to get my dang voice on the computer sorry:(
I'm a bit confused.
For the first round, can we do any song we want, or do we have to sing the Winx theme? And when's the deadline for the first round?
"Well W.I.N.X., we seem to be at a standstill as the contestants are still readying themselves behind stage. But the anticipation is just short of knocking me off my chair! However folks, I may be just short enough to dodge that. Aside from silly puns, we have six fabulous contestants awaiting their 1st round. Oh no! There seems to be some confusion in the dressing room regarding which song to sing. Let's listen on."
I think (if you're able) everyone is supposed to try the Winx theme song first. But I'm not sure if that is a must.
I agree with Jahnavi about being confused
*reluctantly slips into thread*
he he, I'm an absolute horrible singer but I might actually consider joining in... maybe... possibly... that is, if I don't get nervous... or scared...
*slaps "Decision Pending" label on self*
You sound like me Boo. I want to try but I'm too chicken to sing...even in front of my real life friends =(.
Same here. I'm even too nervous to sing in front of my family. Sheesh, I'm bad lol
I figure, I might be more at ease singing when no one is watching though, (sure, they'll listen, but they can't see the person with the horrible singing voice) he he.
*label continues to say 'Decision Pending'*
Why don't you try, Boo? You should too, Zhanneel!
I mean, none of us are professionals, and we're all just doing this for fun, so it doesn't matter if you're a great singer or not.
abdu is right
I am still pending too =P. Though I still don't even have a microphone. I do have a webcam coming in the mail in a day or two that supposedly has a microphone on it (I didn't plan that either =P) so I may record myself and if I'm too humiliated by how it sounds I'll just pitch it. The only way I'm putting anything up is if I'm really satisfied with it =P. I have a feeling I won't like how it sounds, lol.
I just recorded a song now, for practice. It came out really well, and I wanted to use of in the first round. However, it's not the Winx theme, it's A Thousand Miles, by Vanessa Carlton. Can I use it in the first round, or not?
1st anymore contestants come are welcome to come until the deadline of the auditions. So Stella your in? Annie that's great. Fa if you're having trouble with time I don't mind you having it 1 day overdue. (Besides Canada is always one day behind than Australia) And yes anyone can vote, besides the contestants themselves humbu111, k.
are we judging by how close it is to the real song, or just how it sounds?
link to winx theme song karake:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ajrR8PIr3e8
How are we judging? is it a yes/no or rating
i think its out of stars
uhm i'm sorry but i have to drop out due to having come down with the flu and loseing my voice >_< verry sorry
wow that stinks sissy:( and im out i have no way of getting my voice on the computer
Woah woah! Firstly, this is how we're judging: example, Closeness to the real song 5/10, voice sound 5/10, rythym 5/10. TOTAL 15/10! 2nd OH I'm SORRY TO HEAR THAT Fa. I hope you get well soon. If you've already sang something pplease try to post it up. If not well you can join the next season, k.
i did do a song but my coputers being evil and wont let me upload it
umm thats a wee bit confusing to me...how about we rate them from a 1-5 scale and since there r 4 judges the whole score will b out of 20
ill be a contestant. though it might be a while before i can get the song uploaded.
Ya me too but you've got the right idea and Fa I'm sorry to hear that hope you figure out and maybe you should get some rest to make you feel better. Also melgirl is a contestent and I've delayed everything till July 20. I already have a lot on my mind considering my birthday is in 2 days.
so hows the rating system gonna work?
and whats the point of judges if everyone can vote? just to give their opinions?
So am I allowed to be the host?
i dont mind but all it's be is waiting for ur post in between doing anything so its a bit pointless in my opinion
but if u make sure ur on often enough so that we dont have to wait very long, i have no objection
i'm trying to upload the one i did yesterday again and it looks like my voice has come back (thank goodness i remember loseing my voice last year it sucked i could barely talk for a month) but i now have a very sore throat but hopefully i should be able to sing again in a few days ^_^
thats cooli hope u get it uploaded
I don't want to seem like a control freak nor a perfectionist however I have some suggestions. All entries be posted anonymously or rather be sent by personal message to the judges themselves so there isn't any favouristism. Second of all, the forums have a poll option permitting anyone to vote.
As for recording, some computers don't need a microphone to record, like on PCs we have sound recorder. I myself am using my MP3 player's recording option, it's not high quality but it will do. ^^
I think the whole thing being anonymous won't be as embarassing and nerve wracking, however maybe that should only apply for the first round so at the end of the competition no one can claim to be someone else. ^^
The judges can weed through all the first round entries and see who is fit to enter.
At the end, maybe we can make a video with the announcers and judges talking. Anyways that is my imput and opinions, so right now I'm awaiting a response.
KK.Bye
Well the judges are so people know what they're doing, how they're doing and what to do. Yes W.I.N.X you can be host. I'm posting right now :confused: *Says yeah* and I hope you get it uploaded. And bloom_daphne that's a great idea. Everyone send your votes to the judges and they'll count them up, who ever has the least votes is illuminate all on July 21st, k. Bye-bye
Also answer to Boo you can sing what ever you want.
UMM THEre r some problems with that..july 21 is my birthday so i most likely wont be on..and with the voting i think that people should vote on the thread...so that everybody can see...and people should post their entries on the thread also...just like on american idol...people had to face their fears and audition on the spot and in front of other...the same rule should apply here
well in American Idol they voted anonymously, so i think we should do that too
i actually like the idea that the voters could pm either me, u, marty, or zhanneel (unless she competes) with their ratings
personally id think it would be better if everybody said their vote out in the open
well i managed to upload my song i did yesterday before i lost my voice so here's me singing everytime we touch
I sang my song and private messaged adbu it, so I guess you can share that with the judges or however your working this thing.
this is why i think everybody should post their entries on here, cus sending them individually would take to long
Then send the verdict and the bottom 3 to me so I can announce the results
OK
And that was a great performance from Anime Princess espcially considering she's sick! And I'm sure Abby would've done well if we'd heard. Now over to our judges!
My song will be up in a little while (hopefully by the end of the day), do I post it on this thread? Or PM it to someone?
Hmm, I'm not sure which is right. If PM then you might have to PM to all of the judges? Or...I'm not even sure =P.
Ditto. I am confused again: Who do we send the audio to when we're finished?
I think I am actually going to give this a shot... for the heck of it... why not? *hands are shaking lol*
No seriously, they're actually shaking.
*Label reads : Decided to Participate*
I'm going to be gone for awhile though later this month though... eek, I hope I don't miss anything.
but if the contestants pm the judges, how will the general magixclub community vote?
i think everyone votes so you should post it here
I'll explain a little more precise this time. Our forums have an option to add an anonymous poll onto a board therefore people can vote.
What Ii suggest is creating a new poll for each week and close it once the week is over. So that means there's a new round every week. Entries should be sent anonymously because some people might be shy or embarrassed and would rather have one person tell them "No" than an entire forum of people flaming and insulting them
People shouldn't post their votes and ratings here as friendships might be ruined in the process.
ooh, good idea
i like ur idea, i think we should use it
I am a little lost as if everyone votes what it the point of the judges?
Also untill everyone has posted I think I will reserve judgement so I can get my vote and/or scores more accurate, if thats ok
i'd like to do that too
the point of judges is to tell the contestant how they are doing and to influence the voters ratings i guess
i think the judges are to give opinions like on idol
I like bloom_daphne's idea.
i think, to avoid confusion and to many pm's that we should post all entries on the thread....american idol isnt anonymous...and if people are afraid of what other people thing than they shouldnt join...i dont mean to sound harsh...but that is the nature of the business...if ur entering the contest everybody is bound to hear you the the hole anonymous thing...needs to be scrapped.
with the voting i think
1.the contestants post their entries
2.the judges give their critisim
3.the people of magix decide who should be eliminated
or 3.a. the judges give them a score and they are eliminated that way....honestly this is taking to long to discuss...
True, however some people would rather have an opinion first before posting an entry and being clowned. The whole PM thing at first is like re-assurance. When the contestants PM the judges, who in turn make their decision at least no one will be trashed that way. However Anniebelle and Adbu will be making the decisions and how everything will go like.
American Idol is anonymous, the judges merely give their opinion which helps the votes decide. However we are giving more power to the judges in Magix Idol, like some people may make additional accounts to vote for themselves so the judges will decide who will be eliminated.
I think we're discussing it alot because we wouldn't want anyone getting confused nor frustrated to find out what's happening
It is taking way to long to discuss, personally I don't like the way American idol is done, it is all a popularity contest. I personally think there should be no voting and the judges should decide who goes on to the next round and moves on throughout the competition. That way no one gets through because they aren't known on the threads, they get through because they have talent.
i 100% totally agree with abby..
me too..
I agree too, having just the judges making the decisions makes it a little simpler (there are so many members on MC).
I agree with Abby as well, let's just leave it up to the judges to decide.
Yay, here's my entry for Round One! The song is A Thousand Miles, by Vanessa Carlton. Anyway, I'm pretty satisfied with how it turned out.
Hope you like it!
Well personally I already have to much stress on my mind cuz my birthday's today and I still have NOTHING ready for my party with 11 guests coming so I can only say 2 things right now. 1. Great job Fa-licia, 2. Abby I think I need that entry wide in the open so people can vote for you. The judges can also vote but contestents may not. Bye for now ALSO PEOPLE CAN SEND THE JUDGES SO THEY CAN COUNT THEM UP OR THEY CAN POST EM UP HERE.
Abdu 6b, was the winx theme song ur entry for round one?
hey, wait a minute... Happy birthday Abdu!
(yeah I know it fits in the Birthday topic, not here but she said it was her birthday )
Okay. Nice entry Jahnavi, it sounds awesome! I'll be submitting mine later on today.
we still need to finalize how we're gonna decide who gets eliminated
i think the judges should bring it down to like 3 or 4 people then we Mc votes through a poll?
oh, i like that idea, but it wouldnt really have rounds then, and it'd be too short
wait a sec, Abdu, ur a guy?
oh, sorry well he said it was his birthday
Nice work Jahnavi! And over to the judges(Naughty Naughty you lot still have two people to rate)
*timidly jumps into conversation* O-o I must be totally late, but this seems really fun! Mind if I participate? I have read the pages so I know some of the stuff.
Sure! Everyone can participate Abdu's deadline hasn't been passed yet.
yay, another competetor!
Hi,
I decided to sing the winx theme song.
Yeah I know I really can't sing... at all.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VkNUe_7FUbM&feature=user
Don't laugh at me kay
I sang "Il canto Di Musa". Here is the link to it
http://www.esnips.com/doc/5eba31a3-f346-4716-8bbb-7e245d74ff7b/il-Canto-Di-Musa-Me-Singing
Oh my gosh, Abby your singing is simply beautiful.
I am jealous lol
Abby and Natasha, both of your entries were great!
I love all the entries^^
Thanks everyone! Everyone's is good!
my stance has not changed yet
On voting heres another option (yes I know its similar to one already mentioned): the judges vote giving there best two and worst two, also commenting on any that wish too. Then the worst can be eliminate, or the judges can say there worst and the eliminate it that way untill we have an overall majority aggreement or the people on this forum can vote to save there favourite.
I've recorded a few trials and I think I'm going to stick to being a judge =P. Just can't be satisfied with how my voice comes out in the recorder. But again, great performances everyone!
Wonderful entries everyone!
Due to my leave in a few days, I figure I better not enter (since I won't be able to get online much.) So, in short, I take back my past post...
I wish I could be involved in some other way! I know, though, the timing is just impossible for me...
I bid good luck to all the contestants! (and to the judges: who have a difficult job ahead of them).
this could be another possible way for elimination
everybody will vote for who they like... of course
then the judges will eliminate someone, from the two people with the least amount of votes
i like terrior's idea in his last post
Cool! I've been to Niagara like say 5 times and I never went to Marine Land xD
Abdu, where are u from?
ok you guys im trying this one more time so my mic for rockband can pulg into my computer now what do i do?
go to the start button go to all programs, acesseries ,entertainment then click sound recorder however thats only if you have windows lol
Or you could record your voice directly onto Windows Movie Maker.
how come everyone has sound recorder on there computer but me? i have to do it ll today i think im out again(cause i did get it but i have the liking problem so it wont work)
I'm having problems with my recorder, -_- Can I have a extension? Purdy please?
I don't know, I just have a microphone and use the narration tool in windows movie maker to record my voice. I don't think the microphone was all that expensive either.
I'm currently living in
City: Stoney Creek Province: ON Country: Canada
Like I said. My profile will tell ya. Stella, I use sound recorder for my computer. But Fa already told you how.
wow we live pretty close to each other, Abdu
WHERE DO YOU LIVE!
pm me and I'll tell u and the way u asked that is seriously discouraging me from telling u at all =P
I think I'm deaf now XD
lol that was a rather alarming post, Abdu =P
haha
LOL!
ANNOUNCEMENT ANNOUNCEMENT: THE DEADILE PASSED 3 DAYS AGO. WE WILL ACCEPT NO MORE ENTRIES!
Lol, now that the deadline's passed, is it time for the judges to, well, judge?
Okay, still have the question: what are the exact rules for judging? I'm still very unsure.
Yeah, Im not so sure what we do either.
this is just my opinion of how judging should work...
the person with the most votes is safe and can continue on til the next round...
then the judges should eliminate 1 of the contestants from the 2 people with the least amout of votes.
thats a good idea, i agree with it
Oh well
1. To tell how did out of 10 (' '/10)
2. To tell what they did wrong and how to improve
3. To tell what they right and good avice to keep going.
{P.S. there was one more entry but it ailed so we'll have to begin voting as soon as the poll is reset. Meanwhile let's have our staff do their jobs. (W.I.N.X is supposed to be hosting the polls. Judges need to judge the polls and later on...)}
but that still doesnt answer how people will be eliminated
Okay I'll get over there now!
Sorry I'm not too active here. I've had a busy weekend and it seems to only be getting busier tomorrow and tuesday. I'll try to listen to everyone's tryouts tomorrow, but can't promise anything. I'm doing water quality with a group of fieldworkers tomorrow around the city and it's going to be a hot, long day and tuesday I'm back to work (which is basically becoming full time instead of part time).
I would be most grateful if maybe someone was able to put all of the tryout links (with the corresponding names of the person) into one post? That way I could listen to them right after one another and not have to hunt them down. If no one has time to do that don't worry, I can manage. Thanks anyway!
The person with the most votes get illuminated
Zhanneel, got to the Idol Poll thread, there it will be really easy to find the entries one after another
rofl Abdu, "The person with the most votes get illuminated "
Thanks Humbu, and XD
Looks like you don't need me anymore. Just to clear things up if two people tie for the most votes they both go to jail (get illuminated) and if 3 tie than they all have to sing again and the judges get to decide 1 person out of the 3 that can stay the other 2 go to jail. If the someone out of those 2 is a wonderful performer the judges PM each other and give out a white card entry. Just PM me for information. Meanwhile enjoy our singing
isn't it the guys with the littlest votes that go to jail... XD
SO WHEN DOES THE ACTUALLY JUDGING AND ELIMINATING BEGIN???
Lol, you're still not spelling it right. It's spelled eliminated.
I see, so you will have a poll to pick out the worst performance? yeah, I see the poll
OK EVERYBODY VOTE HERE!!!
